Apparently a brouhaha has begun over Carol Marcus' underwear scene, and one of the scriptwriters has apologized.

This is hilarious given the bigger issues with the movie. It's a darn good thing we didn't have internet in 1983, with all that Slave Leia business. ;)

Uhura She was only in the last film as eye candy and a Spock love interest.

Not very progressive but they are selling a commercialized product not a Religion or political movement.

How about how Militarized star trek is in the last 2 films? Not a peep about that.

Space revenge with lots of explosions. Exploring the human condition, and strange new worlds what is that oh right star trek. This surely is not my father's star trek.

Its funny seeing the whole reason the series de-evolved to this is wrath of khan and that dealt with death, age and loss in a much more intelligent way. A bit of all types of classic literature thrown in for good measure.

Khan's success made the lazy people in the franchise try to recreate that same movie over and over again.
